Terere General Information
Terere is an important social drink mainly enjoyed in Paraguay, and also in Argentina and Uruguay. It is an infusion brewed traditionally by filling a guampa – a cup made from a bull’s horn – with the chopped stems and leaves of Ilex Paraguariensis, a holly native to South America. The liquid to infuse the drink is usually served absolutely ice cold, and can be flavoured with juices, fruits and herbs. In the hot subtropical climates of Paraguay, this drink is deliciously refreshing. It is normal to enjoy Terere with friends and family, each drinking a serving before passing it along. Having a large flask is ideal to store a large quantity of liquid, ice and flavours, and enjoy the Terere for many many rounds.
